Strategies for Youth, Inc

STRATEGIES FOR YOUTH is the only national non-profit training and policy organization that exists exclusively to improve police/youth interactions and to reduce disproportionate minority contact. In 2014, the tension and mistrust between police and youth escalated due to events in Ferguson, MD, and Cleveland, OH. Ordinary encounters have become flashpoints for conflict. An undeniable conclusion drawn from the events of 2014 is that addressing police/youth interactions is a necessity. Strategies for Youth (SFY) has demonstrated, through training programs for both law enforcement officers and youth, that de-escalating these encounters is key to positive outcomes for youth and public safety.

GROVE CITY FOOD PANTRY-EMERGENCY SERVICE INC

The Grove City Food Pantry probably got started in the late 1980's or early 1990's. At some point the Grove City Ministerial Association took responsibility for finding a host church to house the pantry and find a volunteer director. The directorship proved to be a bigger job than one person could handle and burn out was common.
